POMoving logic from controller to model in rails 3?
text
Body
copied!<p>I've been building a contest application, and I can easily tell I've been putting wayyyy too much logic in the controller. How can I go about switch this type of logic to the model? (whats important here isn't the logic itself - its far from finished - I'm just trying to understand how to move it out of the controller).</p> <p><strong>Controller:</strong></p> <pre><code>def create @person = Person.new(params[:person]) @yournum = rand(100) @day = Day.find_by_id(1) @prereg = Prereg.find_by_email(@person.email) if @preg != nil @person.last_name = @prereg.name end if @day.number == 1 if @yournum <= 25 @person.prize_id = 2 elsif @yournum > 25 && @yournum <=50 @person.prize_id = 1 elsif @yournum > 51 && @yournum <=75 @person.prize_id = 3 elsif @yournum > 76 && @yournum <=100 @person.prize_id = 4 end elsif @day.number == 2 if @yournum <= 25 @person.prize_id = 2 elsif @yournum > 25 && @yournum <=50 @person.prize_id = 1 elsif @yournum > 51 && @yournum <=75 @person.prize_id = 3 elsif @yournum > 76 && @yournum <=100 @person.prize_id = 4 end elsif @day.number == 3 if @yournum <= 50 @person.prize_id = 2 elsif @yournum > 51 && @yournum <=90 @person.prize_id = 1 elsif @yournum > 91 && @yournum <= 95 @person.prize_id = 3 elsif @yournum > 96 && @yournum <=100 @person.prize_id = 4 end end @person.save redirect_to @person end </code></pre> <p><strong>Model:</strong></p> <pre><code>class Person < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :prize end </code></pre> <p>Thanks!</p> <p>Elliot</p>
